“
NeedLink focuses primarily
on the most vulnerable in our
Nashville neighborhoods. That
would be those with children,
seniors, those with disabilities,
veterans, those experiencing
homelessness. This past year,
we’ve seen so much loss and
anxiety—people who normally
would never have to ask for
help having to ask for help.
One gentleman told us, ‘I’m 38
years old. I’ve never had to ask
for help. I’ve never not had a
way to provide for my kids and
my family.’ And he was super
grateful that we were able to
help get his water back on.”
